Currently, three-dimensional (3D) imaging has been successfully applied in medical health, movie viewing, games, and military. To make 3D images more pleasant to the eyes, the accurate judgement of image quality becomes the key step in content preparation, compression, and transmission in 3D imaging. However, there is not yet a satisfactory evaluation method that objectively assesses the quality of 3D images. To solve the problem, this paper explores the evaluation and optimization of 3D image quality based on convolutional neural network (CNN). Specifically, a 3D image quality evaluation model was constructed, and a 3D image quality evaluation algorithm was proposed based on global and local features. Next, the authors expounded on the preprocessing steps of salient regions in images, depicted the fusion process between global and local quality evaluations, and provided the way to process 3D image samples and acquire contrast-distorted images. The proposed algorithm was proved effective through experiments.
